Tony Marsh is an acclaimed, worldwide exhibited artist, a passionate sculptor whose works are found in selected public collections around the world.

„There is something ironic about taking a material like clay which is dense, opaque and ruled by gravity and then removing as much clay as possible by drilling one hole at a time and replacing mass with light,” Tony describes his creative process, which leads him to create a surface which dematerialize. He ironically continues: „the more material I remove the more intense the surface becomes.”

For the artist the most important factor in the reception of the sculpture is light, which changes its appearance at every slight move. „The forms that rest in the vessels are all shapes that we know, primarily rendered from geometric solids. By perforating them as intensely as I am able and covering them with a surface that at times can glow, it is my intention with this work to perhaps suggest the ethereal.”
